One of the Best Things We Did in Oaxaca! - This bike tour was terrific—honestly, it might have been one of our favorite things we did while visiting Oaxaca. It was a great way to get out of the city and see more of the surrounding area. Our guide, Xenon, was wonderful. He had a well-planned route and shared interesting information about the places we visited, as well as the local culture and customs. The small group—just us and one other couple—made the tour feel nice and personal. One of the highlights was the rocky, uphill ride to the reservoir. It wasn’t easy, so be ready for a bit of a workout. But once we got there, we had the whole place to ourselves—it was peaceful and beautiful. The ride back down to town was fast and so much fun. We were definitely tired by the end, but it was absolutely worth it.

Great exploring on a bike! Learned tons about village life - Excellent tour and great to explore on a bike! The spot for lunch near the lake is amazing and we were even lucky enough to catch a local parade on the way to the Tule tree. We learned loads from our guide who was super knowledgeable, relaxed, and never made us feel rushed. If you want to learn about Zapotec village life in a more off the beaten path tour, we can highly recommend.

A nice ride - Good tour. Good guides since to get to Santa Maria El Tule you have to leave the city. The road to Santo Domingo Tomaltepec is very fun, you arrive at the town dam Recommended

Tule tree and reservoir bike tour - The bike trip to Tule tree was great. Our tour guide ( Leon) was both knowledgeable and helpful throughout. after the interesting visit to Tule tree we rode up to the reservoir and once cooled and hydrated returned back through Tule tree I would recommend this tour. His assistant was very helpful and made sure everyone was safe

Fun way to spend the day - A fun, but tiring day mountain biking in the countryside. We enjoyed our guide and his assistant as they led us through the streets of Oaxaca and out to the countryside. We enjoyed an authentic breakfast at a small reservoir. Coming from sea level comma the altitude was apparent when we were climbing the hills on the dirt roads. The Tule Tree was interesting and the town was charming. The bikes were decent but gearing seemed to be an issue with most of them.

A rugged but wonderful ride - While the going can be a bit rough until you learn your bike and the terrain, this is a great bike ride through rural Oaxaca. The views were great, it was wonderful to step outside the city, and the guides were helpful, patient and understanding. They really did their best to ensure that everyone successfully completed the ride, from offering tips to blocking car traffic. It was a wonderful experience.
